Golden V8

Post by Кыргыз Бала »

Good day. There was a Golden V8 receiver. Today updated firmware V8_Golden_20181217.zip. And the problem began the logo has changed to GTMedia. And after starting it hangs for 1 minute and writes "The card is not inserted". Then it starts showing exactly an hour later. "Coded program" What is the problem? Help. Or how to disable "Map not found"?

Sorry I missed this post yesterday.

Try doing a factory reset and then reload the software.
Save your channel list to USB etc first if you can.

Freesat re branded some time back to GT Media.

Check the card slot for dust, maybe insert and remove a card a few times, not a chipped card.

If you can not access the menus use the flash.bin method.

flash.bin recovery is done like this.

Place a copy of the unpacked software (the .bin file) on a USB stick and rename it "flash.bin"
With the USB in the unit, power on while repeat pressing "Menu" on the remote. You must use the V7 remote on the V7.
The unit should reload the software.

Also other users say that you must use a USB stick, not a card holder etc and that stick must be 32Gb or under.

I have had units that will not recover.
Try using the same software as was in the unit when it crashed, not the new update software.
You must use the correct software, ie that for the V7HD, not software for any other freesat units.

Try even older software as the file for flash.bin.

Look at the LED in the USB stick. When the TV shows the message "USB Upgrade, do not turn off" you should see the LED on the USB flash as the file is loaded.
The USB LED should also flash a few times as the unit first powers on and looks at it.
Also users have said to use the rear USB port for this on V8 units.

Привет. Я использую протокол mgcamd. Но почему то ищет карту CA. Через 2 минуты пишет сообщения на экране карта не вставлена. Потом все нормально показывает. Вопрос как отключить чтоб он не искал карту в CA?

Hey. I am using the mgcamd protocol. But for some reason, looking for a CA card. After 2 minutes, writes messages on the screen, the map is not inserted. Then everything is fine shows. The question is how to disable so that he did not look for a card in CA?

Sorry I don't use the net side of these units.

I hope another user will guide you.

Есть там картоприемник. Внутри стоит. Я его недавно вскрывал. А вот с надписью - не подскажу, не сталкивался.
There's a card reader. Inside is. I opened it recently. But the inscription does not tell.
